THPG. Switches and more.

Bakelite® and porcelain switch systems. Lighting and furnishings. Manufactured in Germany and Europe.

The company THPG, established by Manufactum founder Thomas Hoof, was part of the Manufactum Group from 1998 to 2007, where it was responsible for the development and manufacture of Manufactum's own product lines. Today, it concentrates on the production and distribution of switch and lighting systems made of Bakelite®, porcelain, and glass, which are now successful throughout Europe. They are most often used in the preservation of historical monuments, in the renovation of old buildings, in hotels, museums, commercial, public, and private new buildings. Everywhere they appear, they are also a statement on distancing from trends and on durability as a virtue.

Classics in a new outfit:

Our ‘Proteus’: writing instruments with interchangeable grip sleeves.
Ballpoint pen and mechanical pencil.

This pen cannot predict the future, but just like the sea god of Greek mythology from whom it takes its name, it can change its shape. The grip sleeve can be easily replaced with a completely different material (both visually and haptically).

This versatility, which is unique in the stationery market, is actually a natural consequence of our design philosophy: THPG products should be easy to disassemble and reassemble. Instead of glue and rivets, we use threads, screws, bolts, and nuts to connect components. The result is transparent and permanently repairable products, not black boxes.
All components of our Proteus are sourced in Germany.

Apartment RioMarie in the Oscar Niemeyer House

In 2012, architects Karen and Klaus Romberg acquired and renovated two residential units in a residential complex designed by the famous Brazilian architect Oscar Niemeyer in Berlin's Hansa district, which was rebuilt after the war, and brought them into the 21st century in terms of room layout. Our Bakelite switch series combines the design of the time with the technology of today. © Picture: Hanns Joosten.

LISILUX luminaires from Lindner

Sa Nau Agroturismo

We normally present our LISILUX as a "functional luminaire in the best sense of the word" – and that's exactly what it is: robust, reliable, splash-proof and therefore ideal for use in damp rooms or covered outdoor areas. With the right staging, however, it can also be used as a "designer luminaire," as the example of the Sa Nau vacation residence on Mallorca shows.

House Stutensee

House Stutensee comes alive with interesting light channels that run through all the rooms in different ways. Details such as cantilevered steps, the use of switches, sockets and lights made of Bakelite ®, as well as the "open-air" showers set accents and reinforce the reduced cubic character of the building form.

Locksmith's workshop conversion

Before the reconstruction, the loft-like building was the ruin of a locksmith's shop from 1904 in Stuttgart's Lehenviertel district. As the workshop building was in a very poor condition at the beginning, the conversion of the old locksmith's shop was very risky and there was no guarantee that the project would succeed.
